Hello,   just wondering how the default tolerance value works at new created dimension in drawing. Since i use mostly the +- symetric - would it be possible to set the default tolerance (maybe in drawing setup file) value this way?   Thanks in advance   T.

Hi,we have this scenario: a notebook HP ZBOOK STUDIO 16 G10 (Microsoft Windows 11 Ent 24H2), a HP THUNDERBOLT DOCK 280W G4 and a monitor PHILIPS 273V5L. We use PTC CREO 20.6.1.  The problem is this: when we open Drawing on the Philips monitor, the program crashes and closes all open programs. I attach the error that the event viewer reports. If we open Drawing on the laptop monitor, the program starts correctly. If I update the Nvidia video card driver, then the problem is solved for a while... Should I reinstall Drawing from scratch? Or should I reinstall Windows entirely? Thank you.Best regards,        

HelloI have issues with matrix calcualtions.  I am calculating the stifness matrix of something but I want to multipy a matrix by a vector. But I want to put unknown variable in the vector so the resulting vector is a function of the variable. I am ataching pictures to illustrate what  I mean. Thanks for any help.

Hello, I am reading values from an Excel sheet. I was building on the answer that Werner had for one of the questions. I have attached both P10 sheet and the excel sheet i am reading from. I was able to read the values for some but not others. The problem is there are dashes at TPP3,TPP5,...  Thanks,Sam  

The Mathcad Prime Documentation tab contains two dropdowns for adding and removing space, respectively.   The Add Space button allows the addition of a single line or a page.  The Remove Space button allows the deletion of a single line or all empty space down to the next region (if any).     I frequently add extra pages to allow plenty of leeway for adding new regions in between existing ones.  I always find it a bit of a nuisance having to press the Add/Remove buttons twice to tidy up the worksheet afterwards.   I don't think I've ever used the single line option for either adding or removing spaces.  It is almost trivially easy to carry out these tasks using the Enter or Delete/Backspace keys, switching to Draft Mode if necessary to ensure the correct cursor position (which is almost certainly necessary to use the single-line button options, anyway).   So, I was wondering if anybody makes use of the single line options, or would miss th

I'm trying to pull G number of rows from an array.  The For loop is not working.  It gives me the whole array instead.

Having some trouble with flattening a small harness with 2 wires. It's a very simple harness with a connector on one end and then 2 eyelets on the other. Ideally for the drawing Id like to have each wire coming out relative to where it would on the real connector. The picture shows about as good as I can get it.  Anything I try seems to screw it up in some form. Using the move segment tool works in some cases but if for example I want to move the red wire to the correct position I can move it but as soon as I confirm it it disappears from the window and in the model tree that part of the flatten harness turns red. So I delete it and have to re-flatten that section.  If I try and auto fan it it makes a big mess where the cables are twisted together. I have tried using the twist command but I can't seem to get that working either. There are times where I can get the connector to look right with the wires but then there is a twist going towards the eyelets and I still

I have some large scan files from a router with many small line segments.  Creo error "you are attempting to import too many entities"  Suggested turning of "intent manager".  I can not find intent manager and it sketcher will not import the .dxf file.   If I hit Proceed, it does not import anything.   Is there a work flow work around for this to get the data into sketcher? 

We created symbols of tables (i.e. torque table) in an mbd in Creo 8 but when we export them into a pvz file the justification of the symbol text changes from center justified to right justified so the text violates the table lines. These same files exported correctly with my old computer, but i had to get a new one and have a new config.pro. Is there a setting that controls this?

Hi,How a Mathcad program will look like in which Barnsley fern  fractal plot can be seen?

We have a requirement to highlight areas of a casting model as zoned areas, where the zoned area has specil requirements, ie cannot be repaired with welds etc.  We usually do this by highlighing the areas by drawing sketches on the drawing views.  We thought it might be a good idea to show these surfaces as different coloured surfaces in the 3D model so found a way on youtube, where a guy showed how to change a particular surface to transparent, then copy and paste a new surface over the transparent surface, which could then be split into 2 surfaces, with one being the colour of the original part and the other surface being coloured to a new colour to highlight a special attention area.  Our current policy for casting to machined, is to take this casting model, create a new part for the machined and then merge the casting into the machined model (using Get Data > Merge/Inheritance).  Unfortunately, when we then apply machined cuts to the machined part, these newl

I have a prt(V Belt) where i need to have two models, but show just one at time.Usually we use one for 3d and one for 2d, but in this case i just wanna have like "one button" where i show one or another. Creo 8.0.9.0

I have a UDF that has annotation features When I use this UDF in another part, if the annotation plane is different from the one that the UDF was created in then the annotations come in with the suppressed icon next to them and while you can see them briefly if you edit the dimension they are associated to they will not show up using the show annotations button. I opened up a ticket and PTCs response was that I need to place the UDF in the same annotation plane that it was originally made in. This means that I would need 6 different UDFs that all have the same features. My users would need to figure out what annotation plane they are working in and then pick the correct UDF that corresponds.   Am I missing something? Does anyone know of a work around for this? If there is none then I can open an idea, seems like PTC should be able to auto change the annotation plane to correspond to one that the UDF placement is parallel to.

Hello,In Creo 4.0 I was able to cycle through different hatched components in an assembly drawing with the "Next" and "Previous" function in the Mod XHatch menu.However, in Creo 11.0 I cannot find this functionality in the "Edit Hatching" menues, How can I cycle between hatched components in an easy way?  Best regards,Erik 

Please quickly respond regarding the support for CreoElements/Direct License Server 20.8 on Windows Server 2025.In recent years, the servers available for purchase primarily use Windows Server 2025,and it is expected that more customers will be unable to downgrade to 2022 due to compatibility with other systems.

Hi All!I am trying to open an existing solid tool (assembly) with bulk parts for the inserts and screws (I don't want to model them separately) in the NC assembly environment , My problem is, that Creo doesn't recognize the proper quantity even though the BOM_REPORT_QUANTITY parameter is already set.Also, can I use a parameter to override the type field to show INSERT / HOLDER instead of GENERIC? Is there any workaround for this? Thank you!I am using Creo 12.

I have a set of bounding temperature data Ti, at coordinates (xi,yi,zi).  I would like to linearly interpolate the temperature at interior points within the bounding points.  The bounding points could be like a cube, or other shape, or a plane or a line element.  Is there a mathcad prime program that can do this?

Hello, I have to process~750 rows, pulling values from another PRIME file using the INCLUDE statement.  I'm trying to write a text file in a certain format (just 6 row sample).  First column of values would have no quotation marks.  Second column of values would be text or string if a decimal place was included, only to two decimal places.  The delimiter between rows would be a comma.  Attached are a sample PRIME file of what I created and a text file of which I would like to see.Ideas?

When making a template in Mathcad Prime 10.0.0.0, i set the document -> View -> to "Draft".  I then save and reopen the template but it always reverts to "Page" view.  I never had this problem with Mathcad15.-Is there not an ability to set the user made template (document -> View) to always open in "Draft" on that specific template?-Additionally, i have the same question for setting the default zoom on the Document -> View.  Can the zoom setting be set in the user made prime template. Note: if i've got 10 people using the template, i doubt many of them will remember to manually change document to "Draft" view each time they open the template.
